    Strange.

    Yet look at the first day winner with the same email name, 45 & 46 on the list, who won twice in a row.

    That can't be down to luck. o_O

    I've had the same problem. I've been entering since the beginning. Don't know when the question changes. I'm in the USA, Mountain Time Zone. I've tried until 1AM each night. I'll keep entering but don't expect a prize.

    @Kernelwars: Yes. You can disable firewall and can use AV and Sandbox only.

    This question still has not changed. This means that I had to be amongst the first people answering this question yesterday. But, nothing...

    Could it be that 100 people answer it in the first few seconds, or maybe, say 1 minute (which really equals to 60 secs, so... lol) o_O

    Maybe...

    I got mine at 11 pm. And it matters not which time zone because contest rules say they account for that. Best guess answer is to check at 11 pm, 12 am and 1 am. I think I saw it change at midnite the other day. These are the times I seem to recall people mentioning most frequently. Good Luck!

    Well, almost 3 in the morning, and still the same Melissa question. I have a strong impression that this question lives for way more than 24h, but that's me saying. I still have to know which time zones AVAST believes people live in... Maybe Martian time zone. :D

    I also have a strong feeling that this question will be changing like 5 to 7 in the morning or maybe a bit after, when people in my time zone are still asleep or just waking up to go to their jobs.... Yes, I think I'll be spending the night up, refreshing the damn page. o_O :D

    Maybe AVAST is forgetting about some time zones. lol

    Well, it's now 10:50 AM here, and still Melissa! At least, 6-7 hours have passed since last time I replied.
    No change, at all. What the heck? And, no... the web browser wasn't opened in the web page... The system was actually turned off. :)

    Again, what time zone do the AVAST folks live in o_O

    It has been up and running for way more than 24 hours, I would dare to say.

    As I mentioned, maybe they're forgetting about a few time zones. Just saying. lol
